Hello everybody and welcome back to another minecraft update video today’s snapshot is 14w 17a it has been quite some time since we have last had a snapshot but i gotta say this will be one of my most favorite updates to minecraft ever we have the most awesome New feature let’s go and find out all about it if we go into single player and create a new world let’s change this into creative so we can fly around and then go to more world options and change the world type we go through here you’ll see there is this New customized now when we click on the customize button we are going to be given a whole bunch of options now these first ones are pretty self-explanatory we’re going to be able to manipulate the way the world is spawned in and at the moment i think everything is in the Default state for a regular minecraft world so we can change things here for example we can have lava oceans and i’ve played around with this a little bit one thing that looks really cool is biome size if we turn that down to one we’ll have very small biomes and it kind of Reminds me of how minecraft worlds looked um in the beta days of the game but yep it’s pretty self-explanatory you can change things you know sea levels you can turn off caves you can turn off temples you can control the amount of dungeons that spawn there is a lot of Things that you can do here and it’s all pretty self-explanatory this second page that we have is to customize the frequency at which things spawn in so dirt patches gravel patches all those kind of things you can control here so we should go down to the oars because You can even manipulate the diamond ore so let’s make this spawn a heck of a lot just about everywhere let’s turn all of these sliders up and of course you’re not probably going to play in a world where you’re giving yourself a ridiculous amount of diamonds but the options And possibilities here are going to be endless basically so anyway the next page is where things get a little bit tricky i’m really not too sure what many of these mean there’s a few of them that might make a little bit of sense but you know these are some of the more Technical details into how things spawn so if you were to change some of these you’ll probably find the world is going to look very strange and then we have another page for the things i have no idea what these things do but you can change them you can make the World uh look really strange now there’s also some presets we’re going to come back to that in a moment but first of all we’re going to generate our world with small biomes lava oceans and lots of diamonds and so let’s create this world so we have spawned in facing a wall Let’s see what’s going on here this i do believe would have been an ocean because i set the water level so low now now we’re just seeing all of the gravel at the ground so let’s fly around and have a look what’s over this hill will we Find any lava oceans i have no idea but you can see the biomes are really clustered together and this is quite interesting there’s a bit of a swamp biome here and it’s next to some extreme heals ones and even a tiger i mean the possibilities are endless This one doesn’t look as cool as some of the ones i previously generated looks like maybe a river would have gone through here but you can certainly do a lot and look at that there’s our diamonds we can make them spawn all the way up here in large quantities let’s Just have a quick poke and see how much there is there that is a lot of diamonds that is very cool there’s even some more up here as well but i tell you what we’re going to go back to the menu and have a look at some of the presets So here we are at the presets there’s the water world the isle island cave is the light mountain madness drought caves of chaos and good luck now i thought you’d probably want to see this one so i went and loaded it up and it basically brought my computer to its knees so i’m Going to guess here if you play around with the settings a lot and try to do something extreme it’s going to cause some problems and it’ll probably take mo yang some time to iron this out so let’s have a look at io island hopefully this one will load quickly the last one Took a long time to load as well as being very laggy so let’s create this world so the world has loaded and oh my god look at this this is absolutely amazing there are floating islands everywhere some of the most interesting terrain i think i’ve ever seen and i was just Thinking you know what this is the tip of the iceberg this is just the beginning what we’re looking at right now you know this may look interesting but there’s going to be loads of people in the minecraft community you know playing around with the settings and coming up with some new and stunning Looking worlds and you know what i want to do right now i want to play around with the settings and go exploring but i have to make this video for you guys but this is this is going to be awesome for the community and like i said this is just the tip of The iceberg this is the beginning this looks like something really interesting being able to completely change the way the world is formed that is amazing so enough with the excitement about the world generation there is another new and exciting feature in the game can you See it can you see it there in the background i’m sure some of you know what it is let’s move closer towards it we now have a world border system and this thing is fascinating i’ve just had a quick look at it and it appears that There are only a few options for this so far so why don’t we go through these the command is slash world border and then you can set the border from the center and you can also set the time at which the border moves so this border will move dynamically Which is pretty awesome so the first thing we want to do is set the center so if we type in center you’ll see it asks for the coordinates so why don’t we set this around ourselves first of all okay so well border center we put in the coordinates let’s enter that command and Now it’s been centered around us because the world border is fairly big we won’t be able to see it so let’s go and set this at 100 blocks from where we are can we see that yes we can let’s make it a little bit closer to ourselves we’ll change this to 50 And it goes red when it moves which is very interesting i do like this thing is very cool but we can also kind of animate this as well so let’s set it to 75 and let’s give it 10 seconds to do this so if we move with it you can see That it is moving outwards at a slow rate and we can see that just by looking at the blocks here now it’s gone green as well and i’ve just realized when it expands it goes green and when it contracts it goes red so let’s just check that again let’s do one second and Make it come in by five blocks yep so it goes red when it comes inwards and goes green when it goes out so you’re probably wondering what happens with this world border when you run into it well it just acts like there’s a block there and you can’t go Through now when you’re on the outside of this border it would appear that you just get stuck wherever you are so right now i’m in creative mode i can’t fly anywhere i can’t jump up and down i’m just stuck out here which kind of sucks so let’s go Back inside but now what we should do is test this out with survival as well so game mode zero if we walk up to this thing you can see there’s still a barrier and if we teleport ourselves 20 blocks over there then we are just fine nope we’ve been teleported inside I did it wrong there we go okay so nothing happens to you when you’re outside of the border as well which is good to know so there are some other smaller changes in the game as well in the multiplayer screen you now have some options here to rearrange The order which your servers appear in so you can move them up and down the list like this and then if you click on the big play button it will try and join the server but that one is still on 1.7.9 have been reverted back to their normal Selves they no longer derail off of the corners they no longer go at ridiculous speeds all the changes they made there have been undone the endermite has also been changed i’m not too keen on this and they do this strange thing uh where they spin around it also appears they Have a little bit of red at the front of them on their purple texture and these are supposed to interact with dragon eggs or at least it’s been hinted that they will but i can’t see any indications that that’s been added into the game yet now this next one if you Remember we press f3 and we look at redstone we get all of this additional information in the top right corner now this has been done for every single block in the game so if we have a look at the flower it tells us the block the Model and the type you can see there’s all sorts of information here including age for cactuses as well now i think this might be their growth stages as they do have 15 stages of growth so when this one gets to 15 i do believe another One would appear on top but i could be wrong about that that is just speculation at the moment and we all know that snapshots are buggy but this one was a little unexpected let’s share this guy and get ourselves some yellow wool from the blue sheep so there are three more things to Quickly talk about when the world is rendering we’ve all seen it where there’s a chunk near you that doesn’t load this has supposedly been fixed i haven’t really seen you know too much to indicate that it has you have to play the game for a while to notice those things so Hopefully that one has well and truly been fixed there was also a bug that went around that was made famous by the zip crowd guys recently where you could fire arrows into blocks and change their block ids you could use that to remove bedrock and things like that that has Now been fixed in this snapshot and also the block model system has been updated which is something that i do believe is going to work with resource packs so if you’re interested in that look in the description box for a link to find out more information about that update And i do believe that is everything you need to know about this snapshot there are a whole bunch more bug fixes if you want to know the little details about those then check the links in the description box i highlighted the most important ones to you but that is it for This update video if you have enjoyed it please do leave a like i am now going to go and play around with the world generation settings as i’m sure a lot of you are going to be doing too so as always thank you very much for watching And i will catch you next time Video
